Going Deeper in Meditation Course
Our mind is notoriously tricky and hard to manage. What’s crucial is to be able to work with this elusive ‘non-thing’ called the mind. This four week course is open to everyone. By the end of the course you will have all the tools for a lifelong meditation practice.
Programme
Week 1 - Learn to sit in a strong, supportive meditation posture. Look into the preliminaries of meditation and hear the Buddha’s teaching on ‘the second arrow’.
Week 2 - Using the teaching of ‘the 5 Nirvaranas’, the coverings which cloud our perception, we will look deeply into the habits of our mind and how to transform them for the better.
Week 3 - Learning the Metta Bhavana meditation practice. Transforming hatred and ill-will and cultivating Loving-Kindness.
Week 4 - Explore how meditation can be a means to the development of wisdom, and ultimately lead us to insight into the nature of reality.
